Meadowlands Golf Club - Hole #3 - Course Spotlight by Myrtle Beach Golf Holiday
MYRTLE BEACH GOLF HOLE OF THE WEEK: NO. 3 AT MEADOWLANDS
Myrtle Beach is full of quality golf courses that don’t attract the spotlight; it’s a byproduct of having 86 layouts in the game’s most popular market.
One such course is Meadowlands Golf Club, located just across the state line in Calabash, N.C. Meadowlands has quietly emerged as a golf package favorite, providing outstanding conditions and, just as importantly, a chance to score.
Golf is a challenging game under any circumstances, but Meadowlands has always placed an emphasis on playability, highlighted by a 2012 renovation project that softened two of the layouts most difficult holes. Our Myrtle Beach Golf Hole of the Week – the par 4 third – was one of the two holes that underwent a facelift.
Now, we are going to give you an inside look at how to play the signature hole at Meadowlands.
No. 3
Par: 4
Yardage: 480 yards (raven tees); 455 yards (heron tees); 408 yards (egret tees); 351 yards (hummingbird tees); 298 yards (red tees).
Handicap: 1
The course’s most memorable hole, No. 3, had a lake that many mid to high handicappers were able to reach off the tee, forcing a layup that often left an approach that was to long for comfort. With that in mind, part of the lake was filled in during the 2012 renovation, allowing players more room to drive the ball, which in turn sets up a more manageable approach.
All the being said, the third hole deservedly remains the No. 1 handicap hole. The hole plays 408 yards from the egret tees – Meadowlands’ version of white tees – which provides plenty of distance.
If your drive stays to the right, you can hit the ball as far off the tee as you would like, but the water begins encroaching much earlier on the left side of the fairway. Optimally, you would hit a 250-yard drive up the right side, leaving a 150+ yard approach that minimizes the length of the carry over water to the green.
The reality is most people can’t hit the ball that far on command. There isn’t a lot of room between the edge of the lake and the front of the green, so the best piece of advice is to play smart. If your drive isn’t great and you have a 180-yard approach that is on the outer limits of what you could reasonably expect to do, use your head.
Don’t be afraid to layup and play the hole as a par 4.5, if that’s what your tee shot dictates. Bogey is much better than what you will likely record if you hit the ball in the drink.
Meadowlands is one of the area’s most playable layouts, but you better bring your ‘A’ game to the third tee box.

Possum Trot Golf Club - #13 - Hole Spotlight from Myrtle Beach Golf Holiday
MYRTLE BEACH GOLF HOLE OF THE WEEK: NO. 13 AT POSSUM TROT
July 18, 2017 by Chris King
Possum Trot Golf Club is home to one of the game’s most unique names, but an unforgettable moniker isn’t what brings people back to the course 49 years after its opening.
The North Myrtle Beach layout has long prided itself on being the area’s friendliest course and it delivers on that promise on a couple levels. Possum Trot Golf Club is a classically designed layout and prides itself on providing good old-fashioned customer service.
Staffers greet golfers with a smile and they place an emphasis on pace of play, helping ensure what is generally one of the Grand Strand’s quickest rounds. The challenges at Possum Trot are straight-forward and the greens don’t require a book to read, helping make the layout a player-friendly one from the jump.
Our Myrtle Beach golf hole of the week showcases the best of Possum Trot, providing a challenge without overwhelming players.
No. 13 – Possum Trot
Par: 3
Yardage: 203 yards (blue tees), 163 yards (white tees), 115 yards (gold tees), 106 yards (red tees)
Handicap: 9
On a course that doesn’t feature an abundance of water, it’s the defining trait on Possum Trot’s most memorable hole. The 13th is named, appropriately, “Analysis is Paralysis.”
In a game that often rewards the thinking man, that’s not the case on Possum Trot’s signature hole. A lake threatens from tee-to-green and the length of the hole (163 yards from the white tees) adds to the challenge, but there is some room to miss to the right.
Don’t stand on the tee and overthink the shot; if you do, all you will see is the trouble. Grab the club you are most comfortable with from 160 yards and take a smooth swing.
You don’t have to be perfect to find success on the 13th, so don’t think your way into trouble.

Bald Eagles in Myrtle Beach
Every year around the same time of year we have an increase in amazing birds in the ponds around our house. This year in addition to the normal ducks, seagulls, egrets, herron, & swans, we also have seen a pair of bald eagles on more than one occasion in the ponds behind our house in Myrtle Beach.
In this video, you can hear the delight of my 3 year old as she watched the eagle soar.

Pine Hills Course at Myrtlewood Golf Club ~ A Member of Myrtle Beach Golf Holiday
Not only has PineHills at Myrtlewood been singled out by Golf Digest as one of the Top Ten Courses in Myrtle Beach, it also bears the distinction of being the first and only Grand Strand golf course designed by award-winning architect Arthur Hills. Often called upon to redesign fine old venues for PGA and USGA events, Hills' skillful use of mounding and strategic placement of water hazards transformed the venerable Pines course in 1993, creating PineHills, a modern masterpiece of beautifully contoured fairways and generous greens that delivers the best of the game to golfers of all levels.

Alligator at Sandpiper Bay Golf course, North Carolina
Here's a wild gator I found at Sandpiper Bay Golf course. It's probably only 4 feet long and wouldn't hurt a fly. I see them every time I come here, they're pretty cool. I've seen much bigger gators though, down south.
Ryan McCarty Shaftesbury Golf & Fish Club Myrtle Beach SC
I met Ryan McCarty, the Director of Operations, at Shaftesbury Golf & Fish Club in the pro shop and later interviewed him in front of the Scottish Castle that is a clubhouse downstairs and five Shaftesbury Suites upstairs. He spoke of owner Paul Himmelsbach and how he caddied as a young lad at Winged Foot Golf Club and brought that golf course to South Carolina. The ownership group of brothers Paul and Jack along with Marvin Arnsdorff started with Heather Glen and Glen Dornoch. Later they converted Himmelsbach family farmland into the Shaftesbury Masterpiece of generous and manicured fairways leading to well-bunkered elevated bent grass greens. Ryan grew up playing golf in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and moved to Myrtle Beach to be in the golf business year round. Though second in the title the fishing in the Waccamaw River behind the castle clubhouse is reported to be as good as the golf by golfers and fisherman alike. AG&TD2014046
